Personal Statement
I am a 5'7" Sophomore varsity swimmer from Stevens Point, Wisconsin. In 2009 I qualified and competed for Wisconsin high school state swimming as a freshman and also was 1st Team All-Conference Division One.
I competed at YMCA LC Nationals and returned as National Champion in the 200 Free Relay, bronze in the 400 Free Relay. Our team of four girls placed 8th in overall points of 48 national teams. I also qualified and competed in the following individual events: 50 Free, 100 Free, 200 Free.
I have qualified for SPEEDO National competitions in 2008-2009-2010 in multiple events & open relays. As a thirteen year old I was ranked 5th in the nation in the YMCA Top Times data base in the 50 & 100 freestyle.
My GPA is 3.90 and I have received Athletic Academic high honors. I am very goal oriented and considered a team leader, both in swimming and academically. I also participate in three high school community clubs: Key Club, Global Awareness Club and French Club.
Although I swim year round, I also play softball on our high school softball team-my batting average is .532
My ideal college placement would be a school that has a great medical program and of course a powerful swimming program.
